enterprise, was . difficulty which Mr.. Potts
overeams by suggesting that stock should be

building associations. According TO this plan the
capital stock IL placed at 5000. 900. divided into

The Missionary Work Carried On in the
City by the Evangelistic Union.

A great deal Of good work IL being done by tho
society OF ladies belonging to different churches
known as the EvanRelistic Union, which was or
ganized in May, 1886. The object of the orEanI-
cation is city missionary work, and 1t has accom-
plished as much az the means it has had would
enable 1t to do. The experience OF the union
has been that more liberal support Is given for
egn missionary work than efforts to relieve and
properly care for the persons at home who need
help. Mrs Lizzie Haughton first
appointed city missionary. Her work con-
sisted of visiting families and finding their
physical and spiritual needs. rendering necessary
aid and holding some religious meetings. On
account of her removal to another State. Mrs.
Anna Mills was appointed missionary. She con-
tinued the family visiting, mostly in the south
western part Of the city distributing clothing and
provisions to the needy. She has also organized
two mothers meetings and an industrial-schoo
which have had good results.
The practical work Of the union Is illustrated in
the case of needy family, to whose condition at
tent,on was called in the city papers some weeks
ago. The parents were both deaf and dumb,
with four children. and the father had lost his
position through Of strong drink. The
family was found by the efforts of the city mis-
sionary and some memb ers OF the union. They
had been living In coal-sheds for some time.
and were very destitute. Money was raised for
tho rent OF house for q month; the father
promised to quit drinking, his old position WAS
secured for him and work was obtained
LOT ulh bOu. EEOVlblouS tOE = lew oby6 were
given the family, and they are now living COM
fortably and the husband still abstains from the
use Of Intoxicating liquors.
A picnic was given few weeks ago, for thu
children Of the industrial school, by the city
missionary. She, with the assistance Of some
of the ladies of the union and the mothers of the
children, made the day a happy one for about f40
children who seldom spend day out OF the city.
The regular meetings of the union occur
the first Tuesday OK each month. The officers
are endeavoring to arouse greater interest in
hasr xrrstt k<rn that thA ~xrsl1
give them sufficient support TO enable them TO
accomplish greater good.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


ltrom our regular eurresppndeuil
Washington, ID. G. July 30, 1887.
President and Mrs. Cleveland,
have returned from their pleasant
tour of northern New York, look
ing and feeling all the better for
the delightful outing aud cordial
reception throughout the trip,
but more especially, at the boy
hood home Of the President,
where bis old friends and neigh
bcrs eagerly thronged about him,
glad to honor the man. who had
risen, like a meteor, from the
humblest to the proudcst and
greatest position on earth, and
all with a good word and a kindly
smile Of recognition.
AT the White House, it is not
yet known what other summer
plans the President has arranged
cnly the Atlanta visit in October
having been positively decided
upon -but, do not think lie can
refuse assent to the opportunities
of st. Louis, Louisville, and other
western cities.
Some alarm was felt at the
White House the other day at the
discovery that the laths and
raftcIs, in the southern portico
were decayed, and it was thought
that the mansion was in danger Of
a collapse, but an examination
has dispelIcd all fear, as only
slight repairs will be necessary L
stay the defacing hand of time.

reflection upon the munilicence OF

established order Of nature. For
dong these things they are severe
ly rcprehonded by Paul in the
first epistle to Timothy where
they are designated as men who
"dcpart from the forbid
ding to marry and commanding
to abstain from meats which God
hath created to be received with
thanksgiving of them which be-
lieye and know the truth. For
every creature of God is good,
and nothing to be refused il it be
received with Thanksgiving
rhis is not the first time that
civilized countries have been agi-
tated by temperance crazes. 1t is
not the first time that little leavcn
of fanatlcism has made opinions
suited to the public palate. 1t
is not the first time that great
bodies of men have undertaken to
make il appear that God was
unwise in creating or allowing to
be created that which tempts men
to commit the sin of drunkenness.
About one hundred and iiIty
years ago the parliament Of
England in obedience to the de-
mands OF Il prohibition party
which like ours had grown up
like Il mushroom, and spread like
''wild fire" passed laws which
were intended to practically pro-
hibit the rum traffic. After fair
trial of tho law it was repealed
because it was demonstrated that
the attempts to enforce it Great
ed more, and greater evils than
the traffic. All such attempts
have heretofore failed as they will
always do. God certainly knew
that as long as time lasted there
would be men who would do such
things as drunkenness else why
wonld He have caused to be
written in his perfect law Il pen
atty against It,, If we take Gods
law for a model we can 30 no
luther than to enact severe penaIi-
ties for the punishment Of the sin
of drunkenness, rs we do for the
sin of murder &c. If we gc
further than this, or endeayor Il
remove temptationn from men, We
show that we have lost confidence
IN manhood, in religious examples
in the power of prayer, in th,
foolishness of preaching &c
A distinguished military officer ol
England once said is speaking 0
the military power Of this country
that for want Of orgaization twenty
thousand British regulars coulc
march throught the country; bu
added that when they went to re
turn not one Of them would ge
back. For want of organization
and a proper understanding o

cessors have been as the offspnn,

ABLE.


ABLE.
Stubbornness Is another
name for the same thing. Opin-
ions and interest form the ground
work of this clement in human
nature, and these opinions ard
interest are of an intensely
selfish nature. Whenever obsti-
macy shows itself, this selfish,
personal element is at the bottom
of It. Reason cannot touch it.
1t is a kind of dead weight that is
attracted by its own selfish pur-
pose. 1t yields to no considera-
ton of right, duty, pity or love.
Its nature is as cold rs the snow
of Arctic regions. Warm, gener-
GUS impulses are foreign to such
heart. Stubborn people have
no regard for the rights of others.
They contest every question, how.
ever unimportant. Their own
rghts-their own opinions, in
their estimation, are of supreme
Importance. They regard every
man with whom they have deal
Ings as an enemy. They are ex-
ceedingly unamable. They are
at war with their fellows. Their
hand is against every man, and
every mans hand against them.
THIS ELEMENT IN HUMAN NATURE is
4 FOE TO PROGRESS.
2. An obstinate, seIf-wiIled
child is hard to teach. Teaching
implies willingness to receive in
struction. Training implies gui-
dance. A headstrong child is
not willing to be guided. Every
school has students of this sort.
They are the hard cases. Their
progress is slow. The little
learned is poorly used. Appeals
to their better nature fall fat.
They are enemies to the rule OF
obedience. In quarrels and dis
putes, they are the slaves of the
last word and the last blow. They
sickle for a straw. They are a
stiff necked, Ill natured people
Sullen by nature, in su!ky fits
often. Suspicious by nature
they misconstrue the purest mo-
tlves of their friends. Young anC
old, who have this ugly element
in their character, make lIItlt
progress. Their way, their notion.
their ideas about things must bC
right, and they hold to them will
pertinaceous perseverance ,thougl
the proof be clear and strong
that they are IN the wrong.
THE REMEDY AID CURE FOR TIn
w@ErcIIED TRAIT IN CHARACTER
IS TO BE FOUND IN AN HONEST EFF.
FORT TO BE REASONABLE.
| l Have solid reasons for YOU
belief and your conduct. Lool
at every subject worthy of at
tention, from every side. Be mo-
hasty in your conclusions. d.
nothing-absoluteiy nothing il
anger. If you are angry, take
day, a week, a month, a Who'll,
year, before you act, and then b,
sure that you have such reason,
for your conduct as will bear clost
inspection and rough handling
Be calm, when yo1 act. Such .
course will never be regretted
These suggestions are made upor
the condition, that you respec
yourself and that you wish to b,
happy. Be not disturbed BY
tribes, DO not regard every maj
as your enemy. Try to sec al
much good as possible In all thos'
with whom you associate, Stud,

first Let the black side alone
with what you mete, IT shall b.
measured to you again. In thi
